Immunotoxicity ELISA Kits
Anti-KLH, anti-SRBC, anti-tetanus toxoid, anti-DNP and anti-TNP IgM and IgG are used as biomarkers of immunotoxicity. Life Diagnostics manufactures ELISA kits for these biomarkers in mice, rats, chickens, monkeys, and humans.
In preclinical studies, animals are immunized with an antigen such as KLH while being dosed with a drug candidate. The levels of anti-KLH IgM and IgG are determined in serum collected at 7 or ~21 days and compared with those in a control group that was not exposed to the drug. A decrease in anti-KLH levels in the treatment group provides evidence of immunosuppression. A list of publications citing the use of our kits can be found at the bottom of this page.
Orders may be placed by phone, fax, email, or via our online shop.
